Been busy moving house, so with that on not had a lot of time to get much done on the RTS.
However it is starting to come along a bit more now.

First up, M900 Cranks, Rear Mech, Front Mech and Canti's courtesy of Cybernck; cheers buddy.
I also had some spare M900 pads with some life left in them, so these were fitted.

I was on the hunt for a brake rocker for the rear which Ishaw very kindly came to the rescue on.
It's a copy of the original that could do with a little work, but for the time being it's all set up and working. Again, thanks for your help on this Ishaw.

And the next step is decals. I've got a set on order with Gil which he is trying to get to me before the weekend, but I still want to give the front triangle another going over with Autosol before applying.
Then the next focus will be the wheels:
The Ringle front hub is staying, but the rim is shot.
I plan on getting a similar hub for the rear, or perhaps a Ti Glide.
Rims I'm thinking 521 CD's and Tyres I guess have to be a Dart/Smoke combo.
Oh, and a more MTB appropriate cassette.
cheers
Chris
